Case Study

Improving home monitoring and obtaining medication to avoid readmission

A patient hospitalized for confusion was diagnosed with hepatic encephalopathy due to liver cirrhosis. Upon treatment and discharge, the patient was referred to Mosaic Pharmacy Service. During our in-person medication review, the patient was found to be non-adherent with all of his medications due to side effects.

Case Study

Ensuring rapid post-discharge follow-up

A stroke patient was discharged from the hospital and recommended to Mosaic Pharmacy Service for post-discharge pharmacy care. The patient scheduled a follow-up appointment with a primary care physician 30 days post-hospital discharge. During our clinical review, Mosaic identified this gap between discharge and follow-up as inappropriate due to the patient’s diagnosis.

30 3 days

The patient was able to receive necessary post-discharge follow up in 3 days rather than 30 days.

Case Study

Deprescribing unnecessary medications and improving care coordination between providers

A patient hospitalized for chest pain and syncope was referred to Mosaic Pharmacy Service. The patient has seven different providers, including specialists. During our in-person visit, the patient’s caregiver expressed frustration over the number of medications the patient was on while lacking effective communication between prescribers.

Case Study

Avoiding potential hospital readmission and therapy gap

A patient with pneumonia and sepsis was discharged on two antibiotics and was recommended to Mosaic Pharmacy Service. Upon clinical review, Mosaic discovered that the patient only received a three-day supply of antibiotic therapy and identified this as a potential health and readmission risk.

Prevented readmission

Mosaic contacted the primary care provider to obtain necessary medications, which avoided a potential hospital readmission averaging $14,400.

Addressing medication-related health risks and coordinating with prescribers and health plan to reduce cost
